Abstract | The agricultural sector in Australia has been impacted over the past thirty years by many challenging forces, including rural structural adjustment policies, commodity price fluctuations, and the accelerating shocks of climate change. Most agriculture is carried out by family farm businesses, and these families have borne the brunt of these changes. Rural people have been praised for their resilience in the face of adversity. How could resilience be fostered and supported in these families? |
